The bouncers treated us very bad. After 4 of my friends got inside, they didn't allow another two friends who arrived shortly after. We tried to explain them that most of us were inside already but they were very aggressive and rude. When we were leaving they stopped one of us (female) why were we leaving. It seemed they only wanted the girls to stay!!

Do not bother, they still operate like it's 1999 - they are not LGBTQ+ friendly at all. Save your time and money. You will simply to be turned away because you do not have enough ladies with you.

The most racist place I have seen We were 2 people they told us it’s guest list only but they let everyone who spoke Turkish in they treated us so disrespectfully and would not even look at us we waited for so long and they kept Ignoring us

They don’t let tourists in. It seems to be a general trend in Turkey unfortunately, but it’s not cool at all. Being bounced back from low average clubs is so frustrating…

Late night, great fun, not many tourists. They probably over charged me but well, good time. This reminded me of my youth.. the old school bar and the unexpected nightclub above... Cool !

PROS: Friendly crowd of gay guys who compliment you and cute girls who want to dance with you. Easy to meet quality weirdos. CONS: muggy dance floor, smoke in your eyes until they opened the windows. Then it was just sweaty dancing. Music would be good for a walking scene in a movie soundtrack. Not easy to authentically dance too.

Nice club. They have a decent sound system and you can dance on two floors. In the night I went there the DJs played electronic rythmical music which goes into the direction of techno what I liked. The people were very relaxed and nice. Between 1am and 3am it was so crowded that you could barely move or dance. Prices for beverages were low, plus there is no entrance fee. On the other hand they have a this weird door policy that for each man who wants to enter you need a woman aswell. So there is an equal amount of both genders provided. Toiletts were ok.

As one of the oldest and most underrated night club of Taksim, Gizli Bahçe is an extraordinary club with old sofas and relaxed crowd. As one of few remaining LGBTQ+ friendly establishments on European side, this house is still rocking. For decades, it protected itself from detoriation of Taksim area, staying as it's name states in Turkish, as a secret garden. Prices are reasonable. You mostly need to take away whatever you need from the bar. If you like electronic music, you'll mostly enjoy the place on a Friday or Saturday. Apart from that, patron and the staff are very friendly people. Even I don't like electronic music, I still love to hang out in Gizli Bahçe. It's one of the surviving values of the old Taksim. If you want to chill and dance at the same time without any interruptions, this place is a must go.

An authentic bar with friendly, speedy service. The live music adds to the experience and makes for a great night out. Beware of the fee that is charged for the live music - our bill was rounded to the nearest hundred because of this and we had no record of it.

Avoid at all costs, worst place in Istanbul - wouldn't allow two men into their place. I'm not sure why? Maybe they could let us know, I'd be interested to find out. Many thanks.

The worst place you can ever go in Istanbul, lowest quality of music, terrible service and the worst management. My Chinese friends did come to Istanbul and we found out this place on google. We regret about it. Prices are more expensive than fanciest place in Europe and the guys on the door was allowing only good looking girls to enter. Dissatisfied!

Just know that here life begins after 1 am.

One of the best Istanbul clubs. Very nice venue, no entry fee, nice crowd, good DJs and decent prices. Nice mix of expats and locals. Different music styles across the two floors. Highly recommend!

The comments are so different here. Some hate the place, others don't. I was there last weekend and I felt really uncomfortable. I don't really know what it was, but it was such a depressed atmosphere. There were so many male guests and only a few women there, as you can see in the comments. 90 % Male Guests. I did not feel welcome and would not visit this place again.

Bouncers are simply unprofessional! "Private Party" is downright unpleasant and unfriendly, not recommended. If you don't have a woman with you, you can forget about it.

The worst experience I have ever had, the most expensive and terrible drinks, staff is rude! Will never go again!

Mission Completed. +Respect

Nice environment, good music, cozy place

Went twice and the security was so raciste, don’t waist your time if you’re good looking they only allowed rachet people in. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Although there was equal man and woman in our group, they still didnt let us in cause 2 of us entered 1 min earlier than the rest of the group

Really cool place if you like electronic music

Very very rude staffs!! Never go there! They will charge you more than you expect! It was a big mistake!!!

Terrible door staff rude and bad vibe inside. Avoid at all costs

(Translated by Google) A nice place where beautiful music plays (Original) Güzel müziklerin çaldığı hoş bir mekân

(Translated by Google) We used to go to our student time now is 28 TL beer is very expensive (Original) Eskiden giderdik öğrencilik zamanlarimiz da şimdi bira 28 TL olmuş çok pahalı

The (electro) music is impossibly good and the crowd quite friendly & mixed. I wish I knew places with such good vibes in London!

Perfect hipster dance spot. Two areas for music and bars. Nice people and chill vibe. 10/10.

It's one of the signature nightlife places in Beyoğlu, I've been going there for 25 years+ friendly LGBTQ+

A lovely mixture of people

Excellent place for an endless party. We were a big group of friends and had no problem entering the place.

The security of building is so hard , and the place is very cool compared to another clubs However it can be replaceble , dont push your luck for that place , take a tour around there and you can find better ones

It’s a straight bar. They discriminate at the entry.

Good music and environment. Crowded af.

Overcrowded and mediocre

(Translated by Google) As you proceed from the ferry port in Kadikoy, you enter a busy street, through a difficult entrance and walk through a tunnel, to the backyard of the building. A wonderful environment, a place where people chat with great pleasure. It's not too big or too confortable, but it's just fine. I drank Turkish coffee and it was made very nicely. Next time I want to stay longer and enjoy the place. (Original) Kadıköy'de vapur iskelesinden ilerlerken işlek bir sokakta, görmesi zor bir girişten girip bir tünelden ilerleyerek binanın arka bahçesine çıkıyorsunuz. Harika bir ortam, insanların son derece keyifle sohbet ettikleri bir yer. Çok büyük veya çok konforlu değil ancak gayet rahat. Ben Türk Kahvesi içtim ve çok güzel yapılmış idi. Bir dahaki gelişimde daha uzun kalmak ve mekanın tadını çıkartmak istiyorum.

Cosy and fun place for techno in taksim 🤩

Great music, unique atmosphere and most welcoming owner

Good one， but that one bartender is a real wiener and should be fired. Even it's exciting to go when it's the fullest but trust me it's too full. You can't even move.

The atmosphere and the people who know and come here are great for socializing and having fun, but indoor smoking kill the vibe and the music is not my taste to dance to.

Beautiful space for dancing in Istanbul. The guests, personell and location was beautiful!

someone stole my marrine serre sunglasses from my head the bouncer be like i can’t believe its happened to u thanks yeah happened

Fun nights with good crowd and music. The location is great with a covered terrace as well as a comfy inside area over two floors. Always a good choice for a Friday or Saturday night.

Nice bar and dancing place with garden. They dont allow enterance if there is no equal number man / woman on your group.

Best underground music place in İstanbul by far. Great people amazing people all fun 🕺🏻

Nice underground techno/house. Not too crowded.

(Translated by Google) Although it is usually crowded than you can dance, like peyote's after brother, come and have fun, dance :) (Original) genellikle dans edemeyeceğiniz kadar kalabalık olsa da peyote'un after kardeşi gibi, bir uğrayıp eğlenin dans edin:)

A very comfortable place any time of the day. Great place where everyone is welcome(all colors) Prices are very reasonable too. Will be back definitely, cheers

Amazing little club with a welcoming vibe. The dj sets were bouncy, innovative and danceable the whole time, and the crowd really pleasant. Beers are a little bit more expensive than in other venues, but still affordable. Would be among my favourite clubs if I lived here.

Nice place, mostly good music, loved it.

Good music, good ambiance. Close time 05.30 :)

Still best place for dance

Party night!

(Original) Gizli bahçe eskisi gibi, hele Barış K çalıyorsa. Hatırladığım eski dönem kadar zevkli, her zaman. Mutlaka yolunuz düşerse uğrayın.

Beautiful terrace bar with a dance floor ...small but cool to vibe.. stags allowed if you the bouncer or there should be 1:2 sex ratio ( woman : men)

(Translated by Google) In this place we came by chance (despite the negative comments) there was a very nice welcome interest. It was very satisfying and very varied. Especially the interest and relevance of Nurullah brain was good .. would definately recommend ... (Original) Tesadüfen geldiğimiz bu mekanda(olumsuz yorumlara rağmen) oldukça güzel bir karşılama ilgi alaka vardı. Kahvalti için gelmistik oldukça doyurucu ve çok cesitliydi.
